My Story

Hi. I've created this page because I want to raise some money to help Lifewise, in their work to eliminate the awful grind of homelessness. So I'm taking part in the Lifewise Big Sleepout again this year.

Please help me to help them, by donating using the 'Give Now' button.

On behalf of our fellow Aucklanders – particularly the kids – who have nowhere safe to sleep, nowhere to call home .. thank you.

With these as our core values, AUT is proud to once again host The Lifewise Big Sleepout – to boost awareness of the awful grind of homelessness and raise money to support the work that will eliminate it from our society.
We are also proud of our staff who take part – raising sponsorship by sleeping outside on a winter’s night. No, it’s not true rough sleeping, but the experience – and spending time with people who’ve done it for real – does give genuine insight. That’s why many do it year after year – it’s compelling.
So please support your colleagues by going to their Big Sleepout pages and donating.

By the way, students from the Master of Human Rights class have made a documentary, “On Our Doorstep – a voice for homeless youth.” You can see the trailer on the AUT Facebook page.
